✨About Me✨
Hi! My name is Katie! I am 23 years old and live in Okinawa, Japan, with my husband & two cats. While life overseas can present many challenges, I try to romanticize it as much as I can, and that is what my channel is all about! Life overseas also allows us to travel the world! So, I hope you stick around while I navigate life overseas and take you on our amazing travel adventures!
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being here🫶🏻❤️

I am Taiwanese, and my wife is Canadian. She often describes Taiwan as a place where they will keep forcing you to eat until you die 🤣. Most convenience stores or coffee shops in Taiwan do sell good coffee. Yes, Taiwanese people tend to treat everyone like family, creating a sense of home.

[@KatieLambie]

I loved the food and the coffee may have been one of my favorite parts about Taiwan! It was so amazing to converse with the locals as well☺️ We miss it already❤️

[@bctvanw]

I personally prefer coffee from 7-11 than Fami and others.

@@KatieLambie有句（來者是客），意指：臺灣自古以來，只要是外地人都會特別照顧（因為地理環境不熟，同為在這片土地上打拼生活，會一起相互照顧，就像家人一樣看待），所以流傳至今，即便是外國人，我們也相對以同樣理念看待。在文化方面是多元性的包容、相互尊重的國家也歡迎你們來臺灣玩.^^ I'm so sorry.my English so bad.So....

[@russellberg4801]

“Come, be in the moment, and enjoy; you won’t regret it” True words spoken of someone being an active participant in a different place and culture. Another fantastic installment in the Taiwan series. We all appreciate your efforts. Thank you!

[@KatieLambie]

Thank you Russ🥹❤️

I have been in Taiwan. Taiwanese are so nice people, very modern and advanced country. I loved it, not like Europeans who looks down for foreigners

[@KatieLambie]

I’ve never traveled Europe so I cannot speak on that but I was pleasantly surprised about how nice everyone is in Taiwan! I totally agree☺️

[@aidantully6979]

Pretty big sweeping statement @nawa.

[@poonpoonsmith399]

Today is May 6, 2024. I just returned from a vacation to Taiwan and by far, the people of Taiwan are the nicest people I have ever met. I'm tentatively planning on returning in a few years.

[@DavidPrissy]

If you guys are still in Taiwan. Make sure to get some coffee, whisky, tea, and pastry/bread. We have won many world championships in these categories this year and last year. Have fun!

[@KatieLambie]

We are not still there but we loved the coffee and tea! The first two days, I had no idea how amazing the coffee was in Taiwan that I am actually mad at myself for getting Starbucks😭 after I got coffee on this day, I stopped at so many coffee shops and we were drinking like 3 lattes in a day😆 I miss it so much😭❤️

[@user-kb8jg8fv6d]

@@KatieLambie Yes, there are many good personal roasting and coffee shops in Taiwan. In addition, if you have the opportunity, you can also try Taiwan’s 18-day beer and various beers with different flavors, as well as whiskey that won the championship in the world alcohol competition.😘

[@ET352610]

Mmm....mmm....mmm. All I hear throughout the video. Lol. Man, I miss Taiwanese food! Can't wait for the next video.

[@KatieLambie]

Can you tell I like the food!?😆 thank you for the comment☺️

[@yfllll]

I love that you were able to go to a sit down restaurant and enjoy the food! Night market food is great but I love the small sit down restaurants even more. Taiwan has some of the best vegetable dishes. If you have a chance to go back please try some of their fruits too! I live in the US and the fruits here don’t compare at all to Taiwan’s. Since Taiwan is tropical their fruits are amazingly sweet and fresh. Mango and wax apple are my favorite.

[@KatieLambie]

I completely agree! If we went back we would definitely try more of the sit down restaurants because that meal was our favorite☺️ Thank you for the comment❤️

[@user-fp9mz2pu3c]

歡迎您們來到台灣！

[@awesomeness87878787]

There in Dec. Can’t wait for the food 😍

[@KatieLambie]

So excited for you!❤️

[@ww-wallet6912]

WoW

[@brainu2]

Welcome to Taiwan ❤🎉

[@KatieLambie]

Thank you!❤️

[@user-rs7sn7jp6r]

24:02 it’s called sweet potato balls . One of my favorite foods😍

[@KatieLambie]

That’s what I thought but I wasn’t completely sure😅 They were delicious❤️

[@jamiet441]

If there are Chinese subtitles, more people will watch and subscribe.

[@TV-mo1os]

I am very happy that you can enjoy Taiwanese food. I hope there will be Chinese subtitles so that there will be more Taiwanese subscribers. Thank you.

[@KatieLambie]

Yes, we LOVED the food! I am still very new to KZbin so I am still learning but I will look into how to put subtitles! Thank you for the suggestion❤️

[@donmaarko]

You should buy Apple Sidra next time you buy a drink

[@user-mo7bk3rq3r]

謝謝分享；平安喜樂，順心如意。

[@s1mone477]

I hope to study in Taiwan! Thank you for the wonderful vlog.

[@KatieLambie]

I hope you can☺️ I wish I could go back🥲!

[@user-cq9ri6ps2z]

Welcome you two come visiting Taiwan

[@hitokiri92]

Going to the night market on a Saturday isn't a good idea. 😅 You will find pretty much the same foods when you go to more night markets. In Taiwan, you will often find food that is both sweet and savory, even in dessert pantries. And even mayo is sweet. 😂 BTW, in some clawing machines, there is a set limit of money you put in and the claw will guarantee your winning with a firm grip. For example $300NTD or something like that.

[@KatieLambie]

I think we realized after this day that we preferred the less touristy spots for food so I totally agree! I just wish we had more time to find places to eat:( and good to know about the claw machines! Thank you for the comment☺️

[@EdwardLindon]

It's pretty hard to find hikes in and around Taipei that are not 80% stairs. It's very hard on the knees. For a boy to whom "hiking" means the Derbyshire dales or Yorkshire moors, it's quite disappointing.

[@TL243]

😎❤️🇹🇼‼️

[@taiwan2709]

Welcome to Taiwan.^^

[@starktony8428]

去了很多外國觀光客沒去過的景點 影片裡有很多美食美景 看了會肚子餓 夾娃娃的機器外國人可以不用玩了 那種機器是給台灣的高手玩的 要夾到娃娃需要非常高的技巧 新手不要試 影片夾的方式會輸很大

[@Leei]

Thanks for this video ❤ was there an English menu available in that Taiwanese seafood restaurant?

[@KatieLambie]

Thank you for the sweet comment! I believe they didn’t have an English menu but we used google translate so it was easy to read☺️

[@user-xm6tr2su2i]

請問，為什麼沒有中文字幕，如果有的話，相信訂閱人數及觀看次數一定會增加更多，因為很多人跟我一樣，聽不懂也看不懂英文，謝謝

[@KatieLambie]

I am so sorry! I am still new to KZbin and haven’t quite figured out subtitles but I will try to😅 Thank you!

[@yangformosa2357]

你從設定鍵進入 字幕去點擊自動翻譯 在選擇中文呀!

[@user-xm6tr2su2i]

@@yangformosa2357謝謝妳告訴我，我 有但點進去中文翻譯，一樣沒有中文耶，你們點進去有嗎？我看別的外國YT的影片，我點進去就有中文字幕，還是我手機有問題？

[@tiro_taiwan]

KZbin的bug，現在繁體中文都不會顯示，那些有中文字幕的都是有手工做字幕的

[@user-qj7gp9kh4u]

吃的還習慣吧，😁

[@sbc5858]

一杯咖啡170塊太貴了，有非常好喝嗎？😄

[@KatieLambie]

The price is comparable to the states and the coffee is good! I noticed a lot of places roast their own beans and the coffee is high quality so I don’t mind spending money on good coffee🙂

[@tiro_taiwan]

不要一直要求人家加中文字幕
